Thinning too much could be a significant impediment to the tree’s health and growth. That’s why it’s always recommended to hire professional tree trimming services in Boulder CO.

Our Tree Pruning Techniques

Tree Care Tip Video

Thinning Thinning a tree’s canopy allows more light to penetrate it’s interior. The effect is a strengthening of the tree’s interior structure and an increase in trunk diameter. It also helps prevent disease and infection by increasing airflow.

Structural Pruning Often a tree will seek out sunlight by growing laterally in excess. They may grow multiple trunks, excessively large or long lateral branches and often have too many branches originating from one point. The goal of structural pruning is to give the tree a single, dominant trunk with evenly spaced branches. This ensures a healthier and longer life.

Canopy Reduction If your tree has outgrown its allotted space, it might be time for a canopy reduction. This technique consists of trimming the outer edges of the canopy to reduce its size.

When to Consider Tree Trimming Services in Boulder CO

With regular maintenance, a tree’s lifespan can be increased considerably. In cases where the tree is not in jeopardy, tree trimming might not be required. However, sometimes a tree’s roots or branches will grow to the point where they create construction impediments, by coming into contact with electrical wiring, drainage system, or water pipes. Other times trees become infected with disease, posing additional threats. Natural events such as storms that produce heavy winds may also take their toll on trees, leaving them vulnerable to falling. Other times, the roots of trees grow too large and end up damaging concrete above it. In these cases, tree trimming services in Boulder CO may become a necessity. No matter the reason, our tree care professionals have the know-how, machinery and expertise needed to get your job done.

Safely trimming a tree requires a good amount of planning and expertise. Many factors such as the direction of the tree’s lean, the size of its branches, etc. need to be considered when performing tree trimming.
